The 1906 Earthquake and the People in Chinatown, with John Freeman - SFHS April 2022 Program
John Freeman's presentation begins with the devastation of the city and goes on to describe the effects of the earthquake and fire on the Chinese community here. He talks about how people thought the fire would not reach Chinatown. He also explains what the city politicians wanted to do with the Chinatown land—and how the Chinese responded.
John Freeman is president of the SFHS programs committee. He is a retired math teacher and an excellent researcher of many facets of San Francisco history.
* Correction: at 33:01 to 35:33, the segment about Oakland mentions Lake Merced - it should be Lake Merritt, the great Oakland landmark.
This program was live-streamed on April 12, 2022 from the SFHS Museum in San Francisco.
